Hard Work.
Big Wines.
On our road, there are no shortcuts. Each and every season. Each and every bottle. Our crew knows how to get the job done right and does whatever it takes to go the distance.
good things come to those who wait
Patience is a virtue. A virtue that rewards those willing to wait it out. Life moves fast—unless you’re on a tractor, so needless to say we know all about that ‘hurry up and wait’. It can be a long road and a long wait but the right amount of cellaring makes for a great wine, every time.
Dominic McCosker
Winemaker
Born and raised in Australia, Dominic’s winemaking journey started at Harewood Estate Winery in The Great Southern region and Cape Mentelle, pioneer winery of the Margaret River wine region. Moving to Canada in 2007, he quickly rose through the ranks at CedarCreek Estate Winery, before becoming Winemaker at St. Hubertus and Oak Bay Estate in 2012, followed by La Frenz in 2014, where the winery was thrice named Canada’s Best Performing Small Winery. Bringing the warmth of southern hospitality, Dominic now guides Road 13 with expertise and passion.
Time and Tradition
Some of the oldest Chenin Blanc vines in North America are planted right here in our vineyard. These vines produce less fruit than younger vines, resulting in complex, concentrated flavours. Respecting the fruit means bottling with tradition, making our Sparkling Chenin Blanc collection truly celebration-worthy.
